Onondaga County sheriff's detectives charged Dylan Acord, 17, of 2236 Mott Road; Thomas J. Colon, 17, of 7333 State Fair Boulevard; and Jonas Hauswirth, 16, of 557 Seneca Beach Drive with one count each of first-degree robbery and first-degree criminal use of a firearm.

Deputies responded Sunday to an apartment complex in the 7600 block of Morgan Road after four teens were robbed during a drug deal. The victims told police they had agreed to meet the suspects in the parking lot to sell them marijuana.

The victims were waiting in their parked car when the suspects pulled in behind and blocked them in, police said. Then they got out of the car, showed an AR-15 rifle and demanded the marijuana.

The suspects fled on foot after their car got stuck in the mud and were caught soon after police arrived. Deputies also recovered the AR-15 .22 caliber rifle.

Acord, Colon and Hauswirth were arraigned in Clay Town Court and held at the Onondaga County Justice Center in lieu of $10,000 cash or $20,000 bond for Acord and Colon.

Thomas Colon

Bail for Hauswirth was set at $50,000 cash or $100,000 bond. All three are scheduled to return to court on Jan. 18.
